The Slide Continues: NFO 1 - 0 ARS

 Arsenal never looked like scoring.  Arteta had us come out in a new formation that did not suit anybody in the team, no one played particularly well, and after a cheap giveaway from Odegaard led to a quick fortuitous 19' Forest goal, the outcome was inevitable.  Forest fans were ecstatic because it meant they are safe.  The game was meaningless for us, even though there had been a million-to-one chance for the championship had we won, and that's how Arteta managed and that's how we played.

Elsewhere, Spuds sank to 8th place as they were spanked by Brentford and Villa hung on for a draw.  A Man U win meant that top four is (almost) settled, so what remains is the scrap for European football, with 'Pool and Brighton in pole position for Europa League, with Villa, Spuds, and the Bees hoping to get into the Europa Conference League, and of course the relegation battle.  Everton got a last-second equalizer today that could be golden.  They're on 33 points, with Leeds on 31 and Leicester on 30, both with a game in hand on the Toffees.  Leeds plays at West Ham and hosts Tottenham; Leicester goes to Newcastle and hosts West Ham; and Everton plays Bournemouth at Goodison.  The Hammers will have a lot to say about who gets relegated, and they will be thinking about their June 7 Europa Conference final against Fiorentina, having secured safety a couple games ago.  I don't know how they'll approach their final two league games.
